It is an old college custom for the Sophs to interfere and prevent, if possible, the Freshmen from having a banquet at all. The latter classmen usually keep it so quiet and slip away to their point of ren- dezvous so unexpectedly that the Sophs are often completely outwitted, but this time some Freshman ‘‘leaked’’ and °leak- ed’” badly, for the Sophs knew on Monday that the underclassmen were going to go to Milton for their banquet on Tues- day evening. They quietly began to gather the Fresh- men in. Whenever one was found he was pounced upon by a gang of Sophs and locked up in a large room that was gnard- ed. Immediately the 1904 men discovered this they took to their heeld. Some fled to se- cret closets in their boarding houses, others took across country and the one hundred and fifty Freshmen were soon scattered to the four points of the compass and making tracks for anywhere, only so it was beyond the clutches of the Sophs. Chase was given many of these parties of escaping lower classmen aud it was in the fight tbat followed the overhauling of one of them that Will Dorworth, youngest son of Dr. and Mrs. E. 8. Dorworth, of this place, was seriously hurt. He was with a contingent of Freshmen hiding in the old Johnson ore operations south of the Col- lege, where they were found by some Soph- omores. A fight ensued in which Will's neck was badly twisted and he fell to the ground. While lying there some one acci- dentally kicked him on the head, causing concussion of the brain. He was picked up by his classmates and carried back to his lodgings, where he remained in an un- conscious condition for about five hours. He recovered slightly then, but would lapse repeatedly into a condition of coma in a most alarming way. But by Wednesday morning he was so much better that his physician pronounced him ont of all dan- ger. Many other fights occurred, but aside from a few battered heads no serious re- sults were reported. In all only forty-one of the Fresh men and nine Juniors got away to Milton. Some of them walked clear to Julian to catch a train, others came to Bellefonte and had themselves locked up in a mail car on the Central early in the day, others got on a P. R. R. train at Dale’s Summit and wherever and whenever they could. The story is abroad that two Freshmen had themselves nailed up in boxes and were shipped by express. — THE MILLHEIM KNITTING FACTORY TO REsuME.—The stockholders of the Harri- son Hosiery Co. at Millheim, held a meet- ing there last week and decided to reorgan- ize, with the purpose of starting up the fac- tory, which has been idle since last fall. Messrs Hancock, Angle and West, of Danville; John P. Condo, 'G. 8. Frank, A. Walter, J. C. Smith and D. L. Zerby, of Millheim, comprise the new firm. They Rowe elected Chas. P. Hancock, president; D. L. Zerby, secretary, and A. Walter, treasurer. The factory is to be put in operation as soon as possible. Six new knitting ma- chines will be added and each operative will be given as many machines as he or she can handle satisfactorily. Nothing but white half hose is to made and they will be shipped to a mill at Plymouth, Pa., owned by Mr. West, to be finished. It is to be hoped that this reorganization will result in establishing the Millheim knitting factory as a permanent enterprise in that town. It is the first real preten- tious undertaking made in the more than a hundred years of Millheim’s existence and it would probably have been the last had the petty little difficulties that arose under Mr. Harrison’s management to close the factory been permitted to keep it closed. With the Journal of that place, we hope for the best. A To HuxT FAME AND FORTUNE.—A quintet of young men left their homes in Potter township last Thursday for differ- ent points in the West ; there to seek fame and fortune. G. H. Goodhart, son of ex-commissioner Goodhart, was one of the party, and went to Freeport, Ill., he had spent’ some two years in Wisconsin, and returned home to Centre Hill in the early part of last sum- mer.

Harvey Heaton, who will be remembered as a yonng man in this place, fell from a 32 foot telephone pole, on which he was working, on Friday afternoon in Jehns- town, and sustained injuries that resulted in his death that evening. He was in the employ of the Standard Underground Cable Co. at the time and the accident was caused by the breaking of a cross-arm on which he was resting. His left arm was crushed from the wrist to the elbow, but it was an internal injury that caused death. Deceased was born in Boggs Twp., Cen- tre county, and was aged 27 years and 21 days. He was the son of Green Heaton. Daring the Spanish-American war he served in Co. B, Penna., Vol. He is sur- vived by his father, mother and several brothers and sisters and his wife and one child, a little boy 5 years old. Funeral services were held in the United Brethren church at Johustown Sunday afternoon, conducted by Rev. J. W. Black - burn. The remains were brought to Belle- fonte on the 1:42 train Monday afternoon and were interred in the Union cemetery. A squad from Co. B, met the funeral party at the depot and escorted the remains to their last resting place. There is a strange coincidence about the manner in which Heaton met his death and an incident of few months ago. At that time he bundled all his clothes up and gent them to his wife in this place, with the shocking information that he had been killed by a fall from a telephone pole. His poor wife, of course, was in the deep- est distress, but was unable to get any in- formation of the death further than was conveyed by the bundle of clothes and the sad note. Her grief was at its highest when in walked Harvey, thinking the joke he had played was a good one. It was singular that his death should actually have occurred such a short time afterward and in just such a way as he had adopted in his joke. I I A THE SAD DEATH OF MRS. JOSEPH BECK —The death of Mrs. Joseph Beck, which occurred at her home at Wilkinsburg, on Sunday morning, was fraught with the deepest sadness, since there were so many sorrowful circumstances connected with it. She had been a bride scarcely a year when diabetes developed and she returned to her home here last fall, without hope of recov- ery. But a remedy was accidentally found that improved ber so rapidly that she seem- ed almost entirely restored. Only three weeks since she and her husband left for Wilkinsburg, bouyant with hope and hap- py in the thought that she was recovering. But a change came almost immediately upon their arrival thereand the poor young woman failed rapidly until her death. Gracia Maud Beck was the daughter of Mr, and Mrs. J. W. Houser, of this place, and was born at Lauvertown, this county, August 17th, 1875, making her age 25 years, 6 months and 20 days. She was a young lady of sweet character and at the early age of 12 years was converted and joined the Methodist church at Pleasant Gap. Later, on moving to Bellefonte she bad her membership transferred to the Bellefonte church. She was married to Joseph Beck, Oct. 26th, 1899. She is survived by her husband, father and mother, and the following brothers, John and Abram, of Bellefonte, and Chas. of Sharon, Pa. The remains arrived on the 1:42 train Monday afternoon and were taken to the Houser home on East Bishop street. Burial being made from there on Wednesday. I I Lei oe co Mrs. M. G.

The life and character of the great statesman and philanthrophist is so many sided that the deeper study it is given the more fruitful thoughts are evolved. Probably uo man has heen better equip- ped from a mental standpoint to delve into the history of the Lincoln period and en- dowed with more forceful oratory to dis- close the rich findings therein than Bishop Fowler who will lecture in the remodeled Methodist church in Bellefonte on the night of April 8th. It will be ar offering to the people of this community, the like of which has never been had before and no one should miss the opportunity to profit by it. The Minneapolis Zimes speaks of the lec- ture in the following laudatory manner : Bishop Fowler is the recognized leader of the Methodist Episcopal church, and stands second to none as an orator, in the estimation of the American people. He has frequently distinguished himself on great national occa: sions by his superb efforts, but his lecture on Abraham Lincoln’ in its lofty thought, historic data, diplomatic insight, burning patriotism, sparkling wit, vivid word paint- ing, classic diction and captivating eloquence is the materpiece of his life. It is enough to immortalize him. His genius will live in American literature and his name go down to imperishable fame. en Notick To FARMERS.—We will continue to buy whedt, corn, oats, barley and rye, for which we will pay the highest cash price.
